This Thursday (8th April) at South East London Folklore Society, Alan Brooke and David Brandon are giving a talk on 'Haunted Pubs of London: London is a historical city full of mysteries and curiosities and to many of England's oldest and most quirky pubs. It comes as no surprise that these pubs have a deal more than their fair share of ghosts, phantoms and ghouls or, as the old joke goes, spirits galore!'
Venue: The Old King's Head, Kings Head Yard, 45-49 Borough High Street, London, SE1 1NA. Talks start at 8.00pm£2.50 / £1.50 concessions.
Meanwhile SELFS convenor Scott Wood has started posting on Forteana at The Londonist, including this nice local tale from 1948 of the dancing ghost girl of One Tree Hill.
Top five for 2025: London, Paris, Chester and Chichester!
